A family‐based model to predict fear of recurrence for cancer survivors and their caregivers
Open accessAbstract
Although fear of cancer recurrence is a great concern among survivors and their families, few studies have examined predictors of fear of recurrence. The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with fear of recurrence in a population‐based sample ( N = 246) and determine if survivors and family caregivers influenced one another's fear of recurrence. A family framework guided the study and analyses included multilevel modeling using the Actor‐Partner Interdependence Model. Results indicated that survivors and family caregivers influenced each other's fear of recurrence and that caregivers had significantly more fear of recurrence than survivors. More family stressors, less positive meaning of the illness, and age were related to elevated fear of cancer recurrence for both survivors and caregivers. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

In couples, FCR experienced by one partner can influence the other partner's FCR.
“in couples, FCR experienced by one partner can influence the other partner’s FCR [9, 18, 19].”
From It is time to address fear of cancer recurrence in family caregivers: protocol for the feasibility and acceptability of a randomized pilot study of the online version of the Family Caregiver–Fear Of Recurrence Therapy (FC-FORT) (2024) · cites this paper as [19]
The Results report a significant correlation between survivors’ and caregivers’ fear of recurrence and suggest mutual influence; the Discussion likewise says that as one family member’s fear increased, so did the other’s. But the Sample characteristics show that only 52.8% of caregivers were spouses, and the reported finding is for all survivor–caregiver dyads, not couples specifically. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
